Loom work

Recieving this loom has been such a gift, even though I had to move the dinning room table out side. Spending lots of time at the library looking at weaving books, is such a pleasure. It took me several days to research how looms work and fixing the cords and treadles.
Then even though I was totally confused about warping, I went for it and after a few days we were ready to play. My kids are my teachers, Annabel is a natural weaver, the only one that could get an even looking weave. It's been so much fun. We are using this sample weave as the family weave.
